Vincetoxicum Wolf

The generic limits of Vincetoxicum and its taxonomy are unclear. According to Knees (2000b) it counts 15 species in Eurasia whereas Mabberley (2008) accepts 70 species for the same area. One species, Vincetoxicum hirundinaria Med., is a rare and local native in Belgium.

All Belgian collections of Vincetoxicum were revised by Markgraf in 1968.
